Dog Tuff™ Bermudagrass
Dog Tuff™ Bermudagrass is good choice for high traffic and play areas. It also has excellent durability in yards with dogs as it is resistant to yellowing from dog urine. Once established, this warm season grass is highly weed resistance and provides a soft, cushioned feel to bare feet. Dog Tuff™ has high drought tolerance as it only needs 0.5″ of water a week. It only grows 4″-6″ tall, so you will not need to mow more than once a month unless you prefer a more manicured looked.
Most shipping is done on Mondays and Tuesdays to try to prevent plugs from sitting in a warehouse or on a truck over the weekend. Since we ship from the middle of the US, we are able to reach both coasts by Friday.
